As internationalization efforts intensify, more and more CUHK students are participating in some form of education abroad. The number and diversity of incoming international exchange students is also transforming our campus. After reviewing the University’s internationalization aims and strategies, this presentation centers on an interdisciplinary, learner-centered course, that draws on education abroad research. Intercultural transitions is designed to enrich and extend the intercultural learning of undergraduates with recent or current international experience. After reviewing the lessons learned from three offerings of this course, I briefly discuss other practical ways to enhance intercultural learning and foster meaningful interactions between local and international students both in and out of class. This session underscores the merits of strengthening the connection between research and practice to help the University achieve the promise of internationalization.
